Philip337 Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Hello, i am new here in this forum. I hope you can help me with my issue with my Yamaha DT 175. I have been driving a good distance when it suddenly went max on RPM. It's not the cable, cable housing neither is it carberator i have looked on that with help. What can be causing this now? It's a 2 stroke, 171cc with single carburetor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Cynic Posted April 22, 2019 Moderator Share Posted April 22, 2019 Air leak if there are no cable/carb issues. Could be a gasket, carb rubbers, even the crank seal behind the mag. get squirting with wd40, that will show if its a gasket/seal leak. One thing you can rest easy on, we know exactly what bike your talking about, many of us have had one for years. I got mine 30 years ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
